Software Software Chart EASY CAD By using this easy-to-operate software, you can easily draw the patterns exactly as you want. Available to use immediately. Popular for high-frequency patterns. [Functions & Features] Pattern Creation After setting the line width, land width and hole diameter, the mouse is used to create a pattern on screen. Pattern Drawing Diagrams of points, straight lines, arcs and characters can be produced. You can draw patterns by inputting numerical values. Editing Function Editing functions such as line extension, line cutting, beveling (rounded corner or 45 bevel), object repositioning, copying, deleting, offsetting and hatching are possible. You can correct any errors in your DXF file Correct DXF Detects and corrects the un-closed loops in DXF file. Capable of converting polygons by reducing the numbers of meshes in electromagnetic simulator. Convenient software not only for board making but also for simulator users. [ DXF DATA ] DXF Data is a DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) developed by Autodesk for Data exchanges between CAD of different types. Operational Environments OS : Windows 2000(SP4 and newer edition) / XP Home (SP2) / XP Pro (SP2) /Vista non-64bit-compliant [ Features of Correct DXF ] Completion of slightly interrupted lines Completes the interrupted lines into one straight line. Deletion of overlap lines Deletes the overlap lines into one line. Adjustment of crossing lines Corrects the over-hang lines in such a way that the two lines merge into single line at the corner. Deletion of lines, arcs and circles Deletes the unnecessary lines, arcs and circles automatically by designating the area to be corrected. Correction of overlapping loops Corrects the overlapping loops into a single loop. Reduction of extra-small segments In case the spline curves (such as ovals or Bezier curve) are dawn by combining multiple extra-small segments, the total number of the small segments amounts to several hundreds. Even in that case, Correct DXF can reduce such large amounts of segments down to one tenth. Also the circles or arcs can be converted into the polygon. Inputting and outputting of the data Able to input and output of DXF and Gerber data.
